Yup, prop and shaft and a bunch of aluminum.

At least I now have a spare vertical shaft and lower gears.

It's was a complete Bravo One X, now it's a X upper and XR lower.

Unfortunately I only had 454 with TRS and stand up bolsters with the original bottom, so I have nothing to compare to.

In the race on saturday there's another 24 Pantera (with original bottom) rigged about the same with 496 and Bravo drive so I will post some pics from the race later. We'll see if there's any differences in the attitude.

That's a way to find the bright side of a bad event

Don't know how I missed that . Now I'm up to speed . I live in Pantera , Superboat , and swap shop . Need to do a little more exploring on OSO ..
Tomas bassed on the post dates am I seeing that you did the build in about seven months is that correct ?
You did some nice work . Being that you did something so detailed and precise did you ever think about putting a step in the boat ? Looks like you have the skill to do it . I'm only asking because I was thinking that a 24/7 stepped hull would preform awesome . Just don't know if anyone has added a step post mold .
